Newlyweds, Iris and Aiyden, moved into their new home on a bright and smoggy morning.

They immediately wanted to see what they could do to start improving the neighborhood. As you can see it needs a lot of help :grimace:

Iris hit it off with a local guy named Knox. He filled her in on all she needed to know about acquiring influence points and community voting.

Meanwhile Aiyden dumpster dove :lol: Which, at the time, I thought was a necessary step in fabricating... it is not :joy:

The next morning Aiyden's hot-headed trait showed itself... Those angry eyes though :joy: :joy: :joy:

Iris remained a ray of sunshine throughout his temper tantrum, but as you can see, Aiyden remained unfazed lol

Aiyden went to work on his fabricator to cool down.

And Iris got out of the house to give him space.

When she returned home he was still in a mood...

and hurling insults at her left and right :grimace: By this point their friendship bar had plummeted so far I didn't know if I'd be able to fix it...

Iris was happy when her new friend Knox showed up for a visit.

He ended up staying for dinner, and you can see how happy she was to have a friendly face nearby.

Aiyden? Not so much :lol:

Anyway, Iris decided to join the Scientist career. With her Curator aspiration, I figured she could find rocks and stuff while working, possibly helping to complete her aspiration a little quicker.

She invented a little gadget and befriended the robot she used to make it :smile:

But she didn't find any collectibles while at work. So she went out later that night and found some in Willow Creek. She couldn't find a single rock or frog in all of Evergreen Harbor???

Aiyden stayed home the next day and spent the day trying to be zen lol Just think of happy little cactus'!

It worked, and by the time Iris got home from work he was ready to apologize for being a jerk.

Their friendship bar is still suffering, but they have nothing to worry about romantically.

They're working on it though. They watched a TV premiere together and looked adorable while doing it.

And when Iris' friend Knox stopped by Aiyden made an effort to be nice to him :lol:

A few days later a Gardening NAP, that the Greene's supported, passed. And a lot more vegetation sprung up in Evergreen Harbor. Unfortunately, no community improvement was passed so all the public spaces still look like literal trash :smirk:

Oh and Iris has been tending to crickets. She's gotten cricket flour from them... which I had no idea was a thing?!? or what to do with... lol but she likes the little guys all the same.

In his effort to improve things with his wife, Aiyden took Iris on a date in Willow Creek.
https://i.imgur.com/1T6KHpg.png
It was a great idea, Iris was very impressed with the restaurant and had a smile on her face the whole time.

As did Aiyden, which was a relief to see.

Once again, the chemistry is there, they've just gotta work on the other parts of their marriage.

and when walking home I caught Iris basking in the rain. I love this picture. It captures what a free spirit she is :heart:

And I'll leave you with these pictures. 1 of Aiyden with his signature attitude showing off to himself his own chess skills.

and the 2nd of Iris... who is no longer allowed to use the stove lol!

Happy Simming! Oh and question for everyone using the Greens! Do clothing piles keep appearing on the ground despite there being a hamper nearby? I think maybe this is happening because of Iris' Lazy trait. Just checking.
